Manson’s definitely someone I’m gonna add. Only thing with Kase is is I’ve tried to trade for him multiple times with multiple teams and Ducks fans are never satisfied
I think in both cases we have a problem with the term "overvalue."
Guys who think Risto Ristolainen is worth a first-round pick and a top-6 forward are overvaluing their player.
Ducks fans have particular reasons for rejecting trades involving Kase and Manson, and only the latter has an element of "over-valuing."
Ducks fans want to get the equivalent of a Kase who will play the rest of his career with only minimal game loss due to injury. That would be a pretty nice price. The problem, of course, is that he has an injury history which makes it risky for other teams to offer his full worth. In short, Anaheim guys want the value of an 80-game Kase; guys trading for him (reasonably) want a discount for health.
Similarly, Ducks fans want a high price for Manson because we have no one else to play RhD other than Erik Gudbranson. But it makes little sense for an acquiring team to try to improve the right side of its own defense while sending back someone to replace him. And then there's the true element of overvaluing where he's concerned: Manson had one good year two seasons ago and doesn't look anything like that player now. In particular, if you'd watch him every game, you'd be appalled by the quality of the giveaways he commits on a regular and multiple basis. The first goal last night was just the latest example.
